THE latest sonic assault from extreme metal experimentalists The Amenta is now available.

Plague of Locus is The Amenta paying tribute to the artists who inspired them, featuring covers of tracks from Killing Joke, Diamanda Glas, Wolf Eyes, My Dying Bride and Alice in Chains, plus influential Australian acts Lord Kaos, Nazxul and Halo and a typical brutal and atmospheric original song.

In November, they will be touring Australia with the equally intense and atmospheric Lo! Tickets are from https://www.oztix.com.au/
